Place of Two Deaths by Unknown (mail if you know who!)
Reviewed by RawShark webmaster of RawShark's Quake2 maps
Filename: zfxq1dm1.pk3
Half-baked attempt at converting DM1 from Quake to Quake3 format. The first half of the baking is being credited here because the author used Q3A textures, rather than ripping the originals. However, he doesn't even do a good job of it - a lot of textures are misused and appear out of place.
The construction is very close to the original, but the secret door to the Megahealth has been omitted - which bothered me because it is an important feature of the original map. I really don't know about this one - it could be a lot better. The lighting is crap too. DM1 is the not greatest map to choose for a conversion anyway - most old-school Quakers leave it out when putting together a map cycle. If you must play this one, use it for 1on1 Tourney.
I'm sick of meeting pk3 files with no readme inside also - do these ppl not want to be credited for their work? However, in this case, maybe that's understandable. Not great - playable if you're a medium-rare steak type of person. I'm not. I like mine well done, so I'll be sending this one back :(
